Falling Cosmos

Tormented by loan sharks, Lorn had lived the life of an 'ascetic'. He would willingly become homeless and live the life of a beggar (and only sometimes a pickpocket), so his hard-earned money wouldn't fall into his debtors' hands. Hopefully, they would finally leave him alone after realizing he's worth nothing anymore. But realizing his plans, the debtors decide to sell him as a guinea pig! The One Country's grand experiment attempting to copy a human's consciousness and put it inside the digital space! The only catch is, 80% of the test subjects are expected to receive lasting damages to their brain. However, Lorn finds a once-in-a-lifetime chance. The researchers were creating a virtual world using the digital space. And to create profits from it, instead of simply creating boring-old Virtual Earth (and calling it the Metaverse), they were making a game out of it! The first fully immersive VRMMORPG in the world! As the first tester of this game, Lorn would be a disgrace if he couldn't make money off of it!

The Fated Path

Lorn heard Lucas's words and thought. 

"Are you saying I have a god complex?"

"Yes. And the interesting part is, you seem completely unaware of it yourself, convinced that you've seen life and been humbled by it."

Lorn did not talk about his past to Lucas. 

"Did you hear things from Sybil?"

"No," Lucas said. "I don't know your life story. But I can still see you now and draw conclusions. If you want, I can tell you what I've deduced so far."

Lorn nodded.

"Let's start with the obvious. Your childhood education was considered elite. You were clearly smarter than the other kids, but thankfully, whoever raised you pushed you further and further, instead of simply showering you with praise and leaving you to stagnate."

"It was my father," Lorn replied. "He had high expectations of me."

"Mm. Perhaps you were to inherit a family business or something else. Whatever it was, it was something big."

"Something like that."
